Alcantara Steering Wheels?

Alcantara vs Leather, so few choices. If only Lotus were to also offer Synthetic Resin, hmmm

I've had leather steering wheels on all my previous cars, so I went with alcantara. I tried alcantara steering wheels from Porches and they felt really good. The alcantara from Lotus didn't disappoint me either. It's more grippy and more special.

I make sure I don’t eat and drink in the car and love the alcantara on my steering wheel. I make sure I wash my hands before driving my car and it’s staying pretty clean.
Once a year I make a very weak solution of washing up liquid and water to clean it. I use a white towel that doesn’t shed fibres and wipe it down with clean water and clean part of the towel. Comes out like new.

Well that’s just reasonable behavior when you own a nice car.

That sounds like a great idea but I’m not sure Lotus would want it described as having that, like having faux leather.
I’m sure the Porsche owners would love to pick up on that when comparison reviews are made.
